LG Electronics has launched in the Indian market a new smartphone called the LG Optimus G Pro - the Android 4.1.2 aka Jelly Bean OS running phablet with a 5.5-inch capacitive display that has a true Full HD IPS Plus LCD touchscreen with a resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels and a pixel density of 400ppi. Though the India launch happened a bit late, we remember that the phablet was announced in February this year and was launched in major markets in April. Directly at war with the Samsung Galaxy Note II for dominance in the phablet arena, the tech specs and features of the LG's Optimus G Pro speak of a high-end phone at a competitive price. Powered by a 1.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor as opposed to Note II's 1.6 GHz Cortex A9 processor, the phone is a powerful option for those venturing into a useful android gadget for the first time.
Carrying the dimensions of 150.2 (L) x 76.1 (W) x9.4 (D), the phone is a lighter in weight than the Samsung Galaxy Note II at 172 grams. The LG Optimus G Pro comes with 32 GB internal memory expandable up to an additional 64 GB via MicroSD card slot and a RAM of 2 GB. Apart from these features, the 13 megapixel rear camera that comes with LED flash and 2.1 MP front camera for video calling are two major focus points on the tech specs list. The phone supports full HDR dual-video recording at 1080p@30fps and the camera will let you use geo-tagging, face detection, image stabilization, panorama, HDR modes. The smartphone boasts dual recording that captures video with both the front and rear cameras simultaneously and and virtual reality panorama feature allowing 360 degree viewing, from taking pictures of both horizontal and vertical environment. The UX features popular with Optimus G users have been added to the Optimus G pro, such as upgraded Q Slide, Live Zooming and Quick Memo. Other features in the smartphone include Q Remote, Audio Zoom, Video Wiz, Magic Remote Pad.
The 3,140 mAh battery that brings the Optimus G Pro to life and promises an average lifetime. Soon Kwon, Managing Director, LG India said, "Smartphone market in India is growing rapidly and there is a huge demand for big screen size mobile phones. The market size for 5 inch and above screens is expected to be 1.5 million units by end of 2013. With this launch we are gearing towards our aim of capturing 10% market share of the smartphone category by end of 2014. LG Mobiles has earmarked Rs 80 cr for strengthening the infrastructure for retail development and marketing activities."
At a price tag of Rs. 42, 500 in India, the LG Optimus G Pro is going to rival the likes of Blackberry and Apple too, alongside Samsung. We can't help but imagine the dilemma that buyers will be in, once they enter the smartphone markets and are left bewildered with the number of options available.
